Thai sakon Huddersfield

Thai Sakon in Huddersfield!

I was invited to tea with some work chummies and it was decided that we would go to Thai Sakon in Huddersfield. Its one of those places that I've been past several times and always wanted to go in.
I had no idea how vegan friendly it would be!
Overall IT WAS FANTASTIC and I would go there again. The staff were extremely helpful, the wood was lovely and it had great vibes. If you're in Huddersfield I would 100% recommend it :)



Very good deal!!!

All VEGAN (apart from the egg rice)



For the starter I ordered corn fritters and my chummy ordered spring rolls..we did half and half each..they were soo yummmy!!




For the main I had some sweet and sour tofu and jasmine rice.
It was all super tasty!! And we left..VERY FULL

Vegan Cafe: V Revolution Manchester



V Revolution


Today I was in Manchester and I had heard many great things about V Revolution on the vegan grapevine. I had to go and when I got there I was in heaven. The cafe is decorated like a cute diner. It had a little shop bit and a record shop (didnt see that bit). Overall really good vibes.




Random man in the picture..oops :/





The Foods:



A really yummy hot chocolate


The Menu..as you can see there is an awesome amount of choice and its soo cheap!



I went for a BBQ burger. I cant even explain how damn good this was!







Shopping

While I was in there I bought a few bits. Some new cheese to try, marshmallows, chocolate and some jerky.





Overall I was soooo impressed with the food, the staff, the price, the vibes, the shop. I wish I lived closer. All I can tell you is GO! I will be going again for sure!!

What did I eat today? January 27th


January 27th

Time is flying, only 4 days of veganuary left :)...A life time of veganism for me. It marks nearly 4 months since I became vegan and it has literally become the norm for me!

Breakfast:

Toast! I failed to take pics! Useless!!

Lunch:

Leftovers again! Can't beat leftovers can you? Gnocchi!!



Random Snackage:

Fizzy fangs from sainsburys!..These are awesome and 3 packs for £1... a hit in the office!






Tea:

I'm having friends for tea tomorrow, so I prepped some stuffed peppers with risotto. So thats what I've had for tea. With veggie fingers and a salad. I have a lot of evening activities at the moment, so it requires lots of quick easy meals! Tonight I had meditation! Ace fun!





Hope you enjoyed!
Apologies if my posts are getting repetitive. Its the reality of an insanely busy woman!

Thanks for all the support!

Much Love

What did I eat this weekend? January 17th and 18th

January 17th and 18th


Aloha.
I hope everyones weekend was just lovely! I have been very busy and therefore didn't post yesterday! I thought I would do the entire weekend in one go.

Saturday

So today I went on a meditation course in Huddersfield. I actually gave up a lie in to do this, which for me is pretty epic. I forgot to photo breakfast, but it was extremely unhealthy, herbal tea and biscuits! oops!

Lunch

I went into town after the meditation course (which was amazing) and decided that I would continue my day of relaxing by enjoying some Costa and book time. I love this. Put my headphones in, read a book and drink a bucket of soy chai latte. I cant recommend this drink enough! I also enjoyed an M &S samosa.







Tea

For my dinner (or tea as the northern folk call it)  I decided to make some vegan Hulloumi. I was super hungry from swimming and needed some comfort food.
I did this by pressing some firm tofu over night (planning is key) and making a paste out of nutritional yeast, paprika, salt, and turmeric. This was then left to marinate a bit and then fried. I served on a bagel with rocket, mushrooms, spinach and some sweet chilli. To accompany I made kale crisps. NOM NOM NOM NOM








Sunday

Breakfast was unfortunately missed today due to having several glasses of wine too many last night! My bad! I slept through, but then made a lovely lunch.


Lunch

Grilled cheese sandwich and kale crisps. I am obsessed wit kale crisps atm. They are so simple and soo tasty!





Tea

For tea I got some veggie burgers and a sweet potato. Shoved them in the oven for half an hour with a giant mushroom, asparagus, tiny leeks, broccoli and some spring onion. Sprayed with fry light. Food heaven. Served with greens! Lovely











Overall some top food this weekend!

Much Love
